Seems extremely obvious that the "none of it was classified" line is 100 percent about covering their asses and 0 percent about the actual dissemination of attack plans on a third-party app with an unverified distribution list. The 2025 variant of "it's not illegal if we say it wasn't illegal."

When President Trump says that he wants to run for a third or fourth term he generally frames it as a joke. As they say, there's a grain of truth in every joke..but with Trump, it's wise to listen for the truth and not just laugh at the punchline. open.substack.com/pub/faithful...

⚠️ Attention Federal Contractors ⚠️ A recent Executive Order signed by Trump has quietly revoked EO 14026, which raised the minimum wage for federal contract workers. This change could impact around 390,000 federal contractors. Hourly wages could drop from $17.75 to $13.30; loss of income up to $9k.
